514 Eglinton Ave W
House of Chan
This long-standing Chinese restaurant is an unexpected place to find ribs, but they have some of the best BBQ short ribs the city has to offer.
Looking for the best ribs in Toronto? Look no further because we've got you covered!
Chowing down on great BBQ doesn't need to be a designated summertime-only event (although the sunshine and patio beers help). Pulling up to your favourite joint any time of the year and being able to smell the burning wood from around the corner should be enough to get your mouth watering.
With eight varieties of traditional cuts to choose from, options like baby back ribs, beef short ribs or riblets are elevated to perfection smothered in homemade spice blends and sauces. Cooking ribs demands time, patience and respect for the craft.
Grab your slice of white bread and get down and dirty at our favourite spots in Toronto for ribs.
